Wirral Pregnancy Circle

25/03/2025

Life has been pretty relentless this last few months and on reflection I’ve realised that right now I just don’t have it in me to give the time, commitment and energy to holding Circle that it truly deserves.
So I’m taking a break for a while to let this time pass and then refocus and hopefully bring Circle back when the time is right.

There will always be a need for women to gather together in this beautiful way and I’m looking forward to holding that space when the universe aligns itself again.

Much love and thanks to everyone I’ve met on this journey so far ✨

✨I asked some of the women who have been to Pregnancy Circle what gathering together in this way has meant to them. I so happy to share some of their gorgeous words and thoughts:

‘’When I first learned about the pregnancy circle I was excited to meet some other mums-to-be and spend time chatting, however, I quickly realised that this was going to be so much more than meeting and chatting. The circle allowed space to come together as women and empower ourselves and one another through discussing intimately and simply listening. This ancient tradition of coming together as women is so incredibly powerful and Emma has created space for that during a woman’s most vulnerable time- pregnancy and postpartum. I cannot speak highly enough about what going to circle did for me during pregnancy and what it continues to do now my baby is 3 months. Love love love’’

Every single month before Circle I worry that what if no one ‘gets it’ or what if they all sit and stare blankly at me when I explain it, what if they don’t like it 😬
And every single month without fail, I am blown away by how women open their hearts and share so authentically and honestly. How they ‘get it’ straight away and how it is beautiful and raw and healing and perfect, however it unfolds ✨

Januarys Pregnancy Circle has been no exception and I’m truly grateful to be sat in Circle this evening ❤️

What a gorgeous afternoon gathered together in our Postnatal Mothers Circle ✨

We spent time reflecting on our individual journeys into motherhood so far (special thanks to all the gorgeous little babies for being so good and surprisingly quiet through this bit 🥰) then we took turns to share openly and authentically about our thoughts, feelings and experiences.

There are no topics off limits at Circle, and no judgement, comparison or well meaning advice from anyone as we talk, which makes sharing in this way incredibly powerful and therapeutic.

One of the things I heard so many people say today was how much they could relate to the other experiences and feelings around the Circle, which made us all realise that this journey is hard, but we are not alone, we are all going through similar things and there is a beautiful strength in coming together to help get through it.

I am so grateful to everyone who came today and as always I feel in complete awe of women and what they are capable of ❤️

Yea I said what I said 💁🏼‍♀️

We hear the words safe space thrown around so often, usually connected with some sage burning, cacao drinking, drumming, plinky music ceremony. Which is all very lovely and all BUT….! What about that actually makes it a ‘safe space’

Before we open our Circle, we spend a few minutes setting our very clear intentions and boundaries about what makes our Circle an actual, authenic, safe space and I would love to share these with you…

✨ you only talk/share when you are holding the sharing talisman

✨ when one person is talking, everyone else is holding that space for them and actively listening

✨ there is absolutely no requirement to share out loud if you don’t wish to

✨when someone is sharing, no one judges or jumps in with solutions or well-meaning advice, when they have finished, we simply thank them for sharing and move on to the next person

✨emotions and big feelings are ok, even if they make people feel uncomfortable. It’s ok to feel uncomfortable without needing to fix it

✨oversharing and ugly crying is allowed (and welcomed!)

✨ what is shared during Circle stays at Circle (think Fight Club but without the fighting 😉)

✨ your authentic form is all we ask for

With our clear boundaries set, we open our Circle, knowing we truly are in a safe space and that, my friends, is when the magic happens ❤️

When you hear of ‘Circle’ what does it mean to you?

Women have gathered together in Circle since the beginning of time, but more recently, society and our fast paced way of life, it’s become a little lost, meaning that the concept Circle is new to some.

When I think of Circle, I think of:

✨ Connection
✨ Compassion
✨ Authenticity
✨ No judgement
✨ A safe space, to show up just as you are
✨ Sharing, being seen, heard and held
✨ A space where whatever you need to say, think or feel is ok

I’d love to invite you to share in the comments what you think of when you hear of Circle, what does Circle mean to you? ❤️

What an absolute privilege it was to witness tonight’s Circle ✨

Women gathering together, sharing their souls authentically and without judgement.
The theme that came out around the Circle tonight was one of strength and empowerment, this s**t is hard but we handle it, because we are women and we are strong, physically, mentally and emotionally.

My heart is full once again ❤️

I THINK IT WAS JUST WOMEN

It must have been a terrifying sight to behold,
a group of witches gathered by firelight,
chanting, conjuring spirits, creating spells…

No wonder some were afraid.

But I think it was just women.

Being women.

Coming together, as they very much must,
to support one another,
to share their battles and pull each other
through the flames
they faced daily.

Sharing remedies, medicines
and ways to heal.

And believing they were so much more than told,
than allowed.

It is little wonder that the power of this union would appear like magic, to the unknowing eye.

But I think it was just women.

Doing what we do,

every day.
